Book Review: Alice's Adventures in Wonderland


Book: Alice's Adventures in Wonderland (Alice's Adventures in Wonderland book #1) by Lewis Carroll

Description:

Journey with Alice down the rabbit hole into a world of wonder where oddities, logic and wordplay rule supreme. Encounter characters like the grinning Cheshire Cat who can vanish into thin air, the cryptic Mad Hatter who speaks in riddles and the harrowing Queen of Hearts obsessed with the phrase "Off with their heads!" This is a land where rules have no boundaries, eating mushrooms will make you grow or shrink, croquet is played with flamingos and hedgehogs, and exorbitant trials are held for the theft of tarts. Amidst these absurdities, Alice will have to find her own way home. Alice's Adventures in Wonderland began as a story told to three little girls in a rowboat, near Oxford.



Rating: 4 stars (Truly Wonderful)

My Review:

This is one zany crazy book where any and everything could possible happen. Alice finds herself in various situations where she is often misunderstood or just simple too zany for her to get a clear meaning to. Poor girl.

I found "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" to be a fun and fast paced story. I thought this was a wonderful little book and I can't wait to read the second part "Through the Looking Glass".
